I had a baby girl a little over 2 months ago and I also have a 7 year old and a 4 year old. well my four year old has always had behavior problems but here lately he has been peeing his pants and I was wondering if this could have anything to do with the new baby and if so what to do… and also what else could I do for his attitude as a whole, nothing we seem to do makes him behave
Tantrums, meltdowns, and hissy fits can be a nightmare for parents. In this episode of The Lab, Daddy Clay and Daddy Brad tackle this important child behavior topic. Since we’re all about fairness here at DadLabs, we’ll first show kids some techniques for throwing a temper tantrum and getting the most of their meltdown, including the best locations for their hissy fit. We also speak with early parenting coach, Carrie Contey, PhD. to learn why temper tantrums happen, how child development factors into it, and what mom and dad can do to deal with them. The dads also weigh in with their thoughts and reveal what exactly they’re thinking when they see other parent’s children throwing a tantrum. DadLabs Ep. 563 is brought to you by BabyBjorn.

I am gonna start babysitting in a couple of weeks and the 2 year old is very hard to bond with.
He is shy, and can speak, but almost refuses to speak to me.
I recently got closer to him in our last family trip to the beach, while me and his (8 y.o) brother watched him about the whole day,
But young children tend to forget people.
I need some ideas to bond with the both of them.
The 8 year old just needs someone to be there.
His closest friend/"sister" is the same age and can’t offer much to him.
He also gets alot of weight put on him at that age, because he takes care of his brother so much.
He’s very mature for his age, and no behavior problems except getting him to listen to me.
Like, "Christopher, come here for a second" and he says "hold on" and I wait for 10 minutes.
Games to play would be great!
I’m 13 so theres not much I can do except be the mommy for a day.
2 y.o.-Zachry
8 y.o.-Christopher
The Zachry is 30 lbs and im 96 so its sometimes hard to pick him up.
Thx!
